Enjoyed dinner here the other night for the first time and would definitely return! Lots of classic options - pasta, sandwiches, salads and a full bar. It's in a residential area, basically a repurposed house, so when I arrived, I drove past it by accident! The inside itself is pretty casual and unassuming/no frills. Not too busy on a Thursday around 7pm so we got a two top immediately. Our waitress was friendly and attentive as we ordered our drinks and then split the chicken quesadilla. For entrees, we tried the feta pasta and a BYO with blackened chicken and cream sauce. Everything was tasty and portions were huge. Had plenty for a late night snack/lunch the next day! Glad this is one of the first new places I've tried down in CLT! read more

I love this place so much. I always feel like I'm walking into a friend's home. It's cozy, welcoming, and relaxed. The service is warm and attentive without being overbearing, and the food is delicious and comforting. Tonight we reached order the spicy crab soup because it's too good to share and then we split the honey chicken pasta which the kitchen was nice enough to split it for us. The Christmas decor is a really nice festive touch that makes it feel extra cozy. Highly recommend! read more

Looking for a place to eat late Friday afternoon uptown. Came here strictly because of the reviews. Our experience was in line with the majority of reviews. I had vegan burrito and it was AMAZING! I don't eat a lot of meat so when I'm out eating with hubby I'm used to not being impressed with selections I want to eat. There's actually a few selections on the menu that made it hard for me to decide. Now I have a reason to come. What I liked about the burrito is that it was sooo flavorful. It was also a huge portion size. I didn't even get a side and I still couldn't eat it all. We started with potato wedge appetizers. They were yummy and not your average 'potato wedges'. There were probably at least 6. My husband had pasta which we both thought was delicious. I think my next try will be the veggie burger which I server told me was made in house. Can't wait! read more

Alexander Michael's - Inviting atmosphere - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Alexander Michaels is a wonderful staple in uptown. If you want good down home cooking and old-fashioned service, and rustic home setting that is cozy and clean. I recommend this place. The service is unbeatable, I love it every time I go someone waits on me with a smile. Their bar serves very good drinks and it's a good place to sit with friends and family to sit and chat. You'll always be surrounded by laughs and smiles. It does get a little loud but it's good loud because everybody's happy! I highly recommend this place Tuesday through Saturday. They're not open Sunday and Monday, but they do take only call in orders that you can come and pick up. It's worth it! read more

I've known about Alexander Michael's for about 30 years. It has always been a great place to go for lunch or to spot up for a drink. It's such a cozy neighborhood pub that is always busy but never over the top. The food is absolutely fantastic! If you've never been definitely get the What It Is. This is their Cajun Chicken Pasta and their signature cornerstone dish. The chicken was well seasoned and juicy. The pasta had just enough kick not to be obnoxious. Just the same as when I first tasted it. The service is always friendly and timely. Allison took great care of me at the bar even during a busy night. I'm so glad this place is still around to provide great food and great memories! read more

Another amazing experience at Alexander Michaels. We ordered the hummus to start. It was tasty and delicious. Definitely order it with the veggies and pita we tried the honey glazed chicken pasta dish and burrito. Both portions were excellent and we have leftovers for tomorrow. Our server was very attentive and we were sat down quickly. Drinks were refilled often as well. The ambience is lovely, your neighborhood pub we cannot wait to come back again. read more

Review update. I had the best experience here a few weeks ago. The bartender was incredibly friendly, and the service was excellent!! I sat at the bar. The whole restaurant is such a cozy and inviting space. The neighborhood and the charming building it's located in add so much character to the overall experience. For my meal, I ordered the build your own pasta with fettuccine, garlic cream sauce, and blackened shrimp, and it completely exceeded my expectations. It was absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the shrimp were seasoned just right. One note: it can get a bit chilly at the bar in the winter with the door opening, but it's a minor issue given how wonderful everything else is. I'm already looking forward to coming back soon! Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for great food and a warm, cozy atmosphere. And decent prices for what you get! read more

Incredible. AM's is in an old fourth ward home, renovated into a restaurant. Great food and lots of options for on tap drinks. Highly recommended. read more

A true hole in the wall! We came across this tavern while walking through the Fourth Ward Secret Garden Tour. It was a nice stop after walking through the neighborhood. It's tucked away on a corner, I would say street parking only, though you could Uber and it's pretty central within Fourth Ward. We ordered drinks and an app - the DC Potato Wedges - which really hit the spot. Prices were reasonable and the building itself is pretty cool, dating back into the 1800s. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Definitely enjoyed the experience and would love to return to check out more of the menu! read more

This place has been an Uptown staple for over 40 years and it's easy to see why. No fancy tables or drinks, just good food, beer and great staff! I went in before the football games yesterday and even at 3pm on a Saturday there was a good crowd! Testament to how good they are. The vibe is casual and super relaxed so no need to dress up I got the London Broil sandwich medium rare. It was huge! Packed with perfectly tender steak with cheese and peppers. I was blown away. I could barely finish it. If you find yourself in Uptown, get there. It's one of the few local restaurants that have been around for over 40 years, it deserves our business! read more

Always a great "come as you are" spot- great crab soup, fresh green salads and toppings, and comfort foods like stroganoff and meatloaf. The menu is condensed compared with other restaurants that boast novel-length offerings. Friendly, easy bartenders and waitstaff add to the ambience, whether seated at the bar or a table. Cozy, warm, and intimate setting for dining and drinks in the heart of 4th Ward. read more

This is the kind of place you want to dine and linger at. The bartenders and servers are genuinely knowledgeable -- they know their menu and drinks inside and out. We ordered the loaded potato wedges, and they were amazing! We'll definitely be back to try their pasta dishes next time. The ambience was warm and inviting, and even though I wasn't drinking, my husband really enjoyed the wine. The staff offered great recommendations and made the experience feel very classic and traditional -- overall, a great spot. read more

Absolutely nailed it! The atmosphere, the service, the food. We visited Alexander Michael's on Saturday 03/22 and had a wonderful experience. My dad was in town and he love German beer so he was immediately pleased with the option to have Franziskaner on draft. He explained to us that they even had the correct glass to serve it in. We ordered the cajun pasta which was flavorful and fresh but everyone at the table raved about their dish. My husband had the pesto pasta and appreciated that there were plenty of vegetarian options. The highlight for me was the cheesecake dessert. The service was prompt and professional and we had a nice chat. Wonderful time! We decided to make this a tradition everytime parents visit! Thanks again! read more

The seating arrangements are tight, but it's a popular spot; I went for lunch on a Thursday, and it was packed. I ordered the Blackened Catfish Sandwich (Catfish fillet blackened and served on a Brioche bun with Jamaican relish, lettuce, tomato, onion, and Creole tarter sauce) and the Spicy Crab Soup as my side. The sandwich was delicious; the fish was seasoned well and had the perfect texture. The soup was good, but it wasn't really spicy nor did it have much crab. The service was nice, with our waitress checking on the table several times. read more

Found this restaurant on Yelp while I was coming through the area and I now know why it has such high stars!! I'd definitely eat here again!! Food was amazing, staff so friendly and the food came out quick! We got fried pickles to start which were piping hot and oh so tasty! The ranch was great! I got the Honey Chicken Pasta which was in a bacon tomato cream sauce...IT WAS HEAVEN!!! I've never had a sauce that good before! My mom got the blackened catfish sandwich with broccoli slaw and she said it was so very good! Loved this place!! Please go give it a try! read more

Wow - Alexander Michael's is a hidden gem. I've been here numerous times and highly recommend. It can be as casual as you want it to be or a great date spot. Be sure to read the history on the menu as you'll find out more about the bathroom pole, the cooler and history of the building. The history makes this place even more special! It has a neighborhood feel and the staff is very friendly. My favorite dish here is "What it is" aka creamy Cajun chicken pasta. If I order an appetizer, I either ask for them to split the dish in the kitchen or take some home for lunch. House wine by the glass is a great price, especially for people who forget to drink while eating like me! Also, I left my phone here once and the staff stayed after hours to wait for me to pick it back up. Even though my phone wanted to have a sleepover, they went above and beyond! read more

We tried this new spot for the first time. It was really good. We loved the local pub vibe. It was the only restaurant and near other neighborhoods. The menu had a lot of options, but we went with the special. It was so big we had to eat it with a fork. The fries were good, but the Cajun fries were a little salty for me. I also found out there was a different dinner menu, so we may try to come back to try more. Our waiter was attentive and helpful with refills and checking on us. read more

We went for a quick lunch and was thoroughly impressed with how quick and delicious our food was. Our sandwiches were tasty and we enjoyed the different bread options. The fries were unseasoned, but the cajun fries were a little too seasoned (just a heads up). The crab soup was delicious!!! Service was great as the server was very helpful navigating food options. Ambiance was a true hole in the wall/pub feel. Great place! read more

In town visiting and stumbled upon this place while biking. We tried the spicy crab soup, which was excellent, the burger, and tuna melt. The tuna melt was served cold, the cheese wasn't melted but the bread was toasted, very weird in my option. Burger was a typical burger. I will say, the prices are very fair, cheaper than the places uptown. Beers on draft are $7 each! read more

Great "whole in the wall" local restaurant, with a great vibe. We knew walking in that the food would gonna be good. The lunch menu was simple. 4 apps, sandwiches, salads, and soups. I ordered the London Broil Sandwich as recommended medium. I added mushrooms and sautéed onions, add tomatoes. It was a little chewy just as the waiter started but good and the hoagie bread was soft and yummy. The loaded potato soup was creamy with cheese and crumbled bacon on top. The hubby ordered the Half Pound Burg with the three cheese blend, sautéed onions, and bacon, and bit was it a lot of yummy, crispy bacon; he LOVED it. The onion rings were cooked to perfection, light, fluffy, and delicious. read more
